New Tile Collection Broadens Scope for Flotex
Forbo has introduced a dedicated Flotex tile collection offering contemporary new styling to widen the scope of application of this unique flocked floor. The new choice of architecturally inspired designs ensures that Flotex is relevant and on-trend for professional settings. Three of the new tile designs can be laid broadloom for striking carpeted visual effects whilst delivering all the benefits of a modular flooring system: efficient installation, reduced wastage and compatibility with raised access floors. The new ranges include contemporary geometrics with highly textured visual effects, particularly suitable for offices, public spaces and other heavy traffic environments. There are modern linear designs with muted shades and subtle pinstripes that create a distinctive and professional setting, and stylish directional options in rich shades suitable for a wide range of interiors. With over 70 million upright 6.6 nylon fibres per square metre, Flotex resists crushing and indentation, and with its exceptional durability and appearance retention is the ideal floor finish for heavily trafficked areas. All Flotex floor coverings are BRE accredited.

Hawkins\Brown was commissioned by Hackney Council and worked closely with English Heritage, including consultation with the local community and stakeholder groups, to fully refurbish and bring the much loved civic building back into the heart of the local community, providing a unique and historic setting for events. The Grade II listed Art Deco building, designed by J. Reginald Truelove and built in the 1930s, has been carefully restored and refurbished to preserve its original features whilst providing flexible spaces with state-of-the-art audio visual and technical facilities.

The restoration project, which began in June 2008, is being funded by Hackney Council and complements other projects in the area to provide improved facilities for local people, such as the restoration of Clissold Park and House. Deputy Mayor of Hackney, Cllr Karen Alcock, said: “Hackney Council is delighted that the restoration of Stoke Newington Town Hall has been successfully completed, bringing back into the heart of the community a well loved and much missed landmark. We look forward to welcoming local residents, community groups and visitors to this wonderful venue to enjoy an exciting range of events, to celebrate weddings, birthdays and other milestones, and much more.” A new contemporary entrance and reception foyer of bespoke
